From Thursday, May 23rd until Saturday, May 25th, FFT Düsseldorf and tanzhaus nrw invite you to take part in the conference “Claiming Common Spaces II: Kunst & digitales Leben”. The joint project by the Bündnis Internationaler Produktionshäuser/ Alliance of International Production Venues questions the encounter of human and technological bodies in workshops, laboratories, discussions and in an artistic programme; it probes for the algorithmic exploitation of data traces in the city, the future of public infrastructure and institutions and for opportunities to participate in the creation of our digital everyday life.

During the Tap Dance Days, tanzhaus nrw celebrates tap dance with a penchant for crossing lines. At the centre, there will be more than 15 workshops, three stage events as well as the Tap Jam. The Tap Gala unites all of the festival’s artists on stage. The vast international Tap community will cheer and transform tanzhaus nrw into a pulsating space full of rhythm, joy and creativity for a duration of four whole days.
